Alchemist After Possessing

61. Poison Specialist (2)

61. Poison Specialist (2)

Befitting a student famous for poisons, Sally Merina skillfully explains things to classmates who ask questions. She should just ignore it and do my thing, but she had no reason to care about her.

“Yes, it is not good to inject poison unconditionally. If the individuality of the material is too strong, it will be read quickly and an antidote will come out? Well, I wouldn’t mind if I teamed up with an idiot like Woros Blood. It doesn’t seem like a good choice anyway.”

That’s how you mention me. Every time that happens, Professor Marina approaches and warns me, but only then it becomes quiet and when Marina gets farther away, she mentions me again. Whenever that happens, Professor Marina May makes a bad impression on her, but there is no way that her weak heart will be able to expel her student.

‘I’ll make her shut up, so wait.’

Looking at Marina as she sighed in her own powerlessness, she thought so and continued her work. She finished some of her work and looked around her.

Sally Merina was still referring to me. She snips one of her students in class like that, and no one except her professor, Marina, thinks Shelly is strange.

Enemy. She feels hostility to the stares around me. Is that all? You can also see the students smiling as if they were delighted at Sally’s words. Was a man named Woros Blood worthy of such attention?

Celly Merina. Do the students who look at me with hostility have the right to brand me as a wicked person and harass me based on their own beliefs?

Since I was by Eva’s side just this morning, no one said anything behind her back. Why? Because Eva is strong, just because she is with her, no one has ever cursed at me. Compared to Eva, I am weak.

No, there is a perception that they are the weak. I feel disgusted by the behavior of students who are strong against the strong and infinitely strong against the weak. I guess I need to break the perception of myself.

Thought so, I put the finished poison into a flask and sat down. Then Marina May comes running her gun at me. She looks at me with her worried eyes. They seem to think that I gave up my work because of Sally.

I sat down after finishing everything, but it’s a bit unfair.

“Whoa, Woros student… all right. Shelley will let her sheep out.”

“No. You don’t have to.”

“Ms. Shelley’s behavior has obviously gone too far. As the professor in charge, I will condone it—”

“Me.”

Let me close my eyes. Conversely, Professor Marina’s eyes widen.

“I will close that mouth myself. So please wait a little bit.”

“That… If that person says so, I will.”

“Thank you. And I’m sorry. The atmosphere is not right because of me.”

“No. It’s not the Woros student’s fault… I’m sorry I couldn’t protect you.”

I have no intention of blaming Marina May. It’s just that she’s too nice and her heart is weak. If she drank her professor’s water for a few more years, she would lose that innocence, but it would be difficult for Marina now to choose to expel her students.

Should Marina, her professor, feel uncomfortable because of a student like Celie Merina? Marina May is a good enough professor. And every student here knows how serious she is in her own class, her potion-making.

Of course, Celie Merina knows that too. At least because she knows, she wonders if she should refrain from lectures. Her naughtyness also has a line to some extent, and Celimerina has crossed that line well enough.

An alarm sounds that the poison preparation time is over. The sound of the alarm caused some students to sigh, while others sighed in relief. Of course, Celie Merina had a confident look on her face.

“Put the finished poison in place, and I will switch places with my partner. You can go to your seat, analyze the poison and make an antidote.”

Marina May said as she clapped her hands. Marina was exuding a lively atmosphere until the lecture started, but now her tension is low. It seems that you have things in mind about me.

After Professor Marina’s guidance, she immediately moved to the seat used by Celie Merina. While she was on the move, she bumped into Celie Merina.

“Let me see what kind of poison you made. Anyway, I’ll say thank you in advance.”

“…… “

“Thanks to that, I think I will have more time to rest.”

After saying that, she smiles and walks past me. Normally, I wouldn’t pay much attention here, but I decided to take a shot at Selimerina with her skills. In addition, if this woman’s mouth was not covered, Professor Marina felt like she would cry.

So, dear Sally Merina, I will act relentlessly. That’s right, I’m thinking of taking a picture of this woman.

“Hey, Celie Merina.”

“What”

“You should learn a little bit about humility. Wherever you go, above the one who runs, there is the one who flies. It seems that she believes in her own petty skills and is so confident, but then one day her head will be smashed.”

“… What?”

Sally laughed at my words as if she were dumbfounded. I turned my back on her and talked to her.

“In the end, the person who laughs last is probably a person with good skills. This is a fact that does not change anywhere. If your money is exposed and your habits are bad, I don’t know how many people will remain around you.”

“… You speak well. Are there any people with good skills left? Are you worried about me Don’t worry about me, do you worry about yourself first? Sounds like you’re saying you can interpret my poison?”

“That’s right when I said it. It won’t take long.”

My words hurt Sally’s pride, so she trudged and stood in front of me.

“Interpret poison? Doesn’t it take long? Do you, the like, say that about the poison I made? So, how long did our great Worros Blood-nim expect it to take to interpret my poison?”

Saying that, Mary stretched out her hand and showed it to me.

“Fifty minutes? I’m so dumbfounded. Even if it takes an entire hour-“

“It may take a little longer to make, but I estimate 5 minutes for a simple interpretation.”

“What?”

Looking dumbfounded, I passed Sally, who had her eyes wide open, and went to the assigned seat. The students, including Professor Marina, were looking at me and her celly with nervous expressions.

Then Marina, who came to her senses, cleared her throat.

“Well then, you can analyze the poison in front of you and make an antidote. Shi, let’s begin!”

Analysis time has begun. I took off the lid of the flask containing the poison Shelley had made. Then, using a dropper, a drop was placed on the component analysis plate.

“…… “

An analysis plate made of a material similar to a sponge absorbs poison. Then, the part where the poison touched the analysis plate shriveled up with a strange force. I cut my finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the analysis plate.

Chiik!ㅡ

With a burning sound, the blood I dropped slowly hardened. It was definitely a part where you could get a glimpse of Sally Merina’s skills. Beginners will start by determining that it is poison in the form of coagulating blood, and finding out how many types of poison have related properties among the materials on display.

But blood hardening is a trick. In the first place, when blood was dropped on top of the poison, didn’t it make a chiik sound? It was a reaction that could not come from the poison that statically coagulates blood. Above all, when the analysis plate absorbed the poison, it was observed that it shriveled as it turned blue.

The phenomenon of coagulation of blood is only directed through other materials so that such a phenomenon can be seen. I would have put just a drop of blood on the poison and it would have seemed like a strong clotting effect, but even a little too much blood wouldn’t cause it.

In other words, it is for gimmick.

“… Is it like that?”

By spraying a drop of poison onto an analysis plate made of a different material, the identity of this poison was identified. The first analysis plate used was a sponge-like material, so the poison was absorbed, so the poison spread from the place where the poison was sprayed.

This time it is the same material as stone. If it gets wet, it gets wet, but there is no way the liquid poison will spread to the boundary plate. However, just like when sprayed on a sponge-type assay plate, the poison spreads. That too, while leaving a blue afterimage.

My alchemical sense, reinforced by the Skill, never misses this subtle afterimage.

“Is it a fungus? And this reaction… “

Aflatoxin. It is a type of mycotoxin that contaminates crops. Extracted by magic, of course. Since it was transformed by alchemy, it would not be possible to call it an aflatoxin in a large sense.

I have put various devices in place to hide the fact that it is a fungal toxin. It was made to coagulate the blood, and it was tricked to show a protein reaction, and a little salt was also detected.

Since the gimmick symptom was forcibly observed for a short time using alchemy, it will disappear as soon as the poison begins to spread.

The trap dug by Sally Merina causes the blood to clot. Shows a brief protein response. Some salt is detected. And since there is a material that satisfies all three cases, if another student other than me interpreted this poison, there is a high probability that it would be the poison of the creature living in the sea.

Anyway, since I figured out the identity of the poison, it was all to no avail. Among the materials for this assignment, there is only one material capable of extracting the fungal toxin that contaminates grain, so it is practically the same as making an antidote.

Recognizing the identity of the poison, I ran a simulation to create an antidote in my head for about 15 seconds, then moved to the table where the ingredients were placed. It was the time when 1 minute and 15 seconds had elapsed since the start of the poison analysis time.

I expected it to take about 5 minutes to interpret the poison, but Sally Merina’s skills weren’t as great as I thought, so I was able to interpret it quickly. She even thought about observing through magic, but it seems that she didn’t even have to go that far.

*

“Ms. Merina, have you already finished your analysis?”

“Uh, huh? What?”

“Isn’t it? That is… Would you like to stand still?”

“Ah, yes. I was just thinking about it for a moment.”

Sally Merina says that with a big smile. After her classmate, Shelley, says, “It’s Miss Shelley, too,” She goes about her business. Selimerina, feeling that the gaze on her was gone, she hung her head down, holding onto the table on which the poison that Woros had made was placed.

‘What, what is this… how is this… ‘

I tried using different types of analysis plates, but the identity of this poison. I couldn’t even catch a hint. Unable to detect the identity of this poison, I tried to administer the poison to laboratory rats.

Mary didn’t think it was poison until I administered her poison to the rat. She didn’t have the confidence to make the poison, she thought, so she just made up a rough mix of liquids. After all, there’s no way Worros or the like can create a poison that I can’t interpret.

If Shelley’s idea is correct, it is certain that the poisoned rat will roam around unharmed. But, as if she were mocking Selmerina’s idea, the rat that had been administered her poison fell over after taking only three steps. As if rigor mortem had occurred, the whole body was stiff and rigid.

‘Also… poison? Nonsense. How… ‘

The ingredients Marina May provided were not that many. Of course, if a good poison maker took this class, he would make a poison by properly mixing not only the ingredients for the poison, but also the ingredients provided to make the antidote.

A real poison maker is a person who creates deadly poisons at any moment. That’s it, but this one went way too far. In fact, I know what the main ingredient of Woros’ poison is.

It’s a turtle’s teeth. It wasn’t something I found out by analyzing it. When making the poison, I saw Woros pick and bring this material. No he showed Since this class is a class where a confrontation is drawn, in order to keep fairness, all ingredients were to be put in an invisible container and brought to the seat.

But Waros Blood, as if mocking me, raised a snapping turtle’s teeth. As soon as our eyes met, he raised his teeth and showed me, as if he wanted to say that he would give me a hint.

If he hadn’t shown me the ingredients, I wouldn’t even have noticed that the tortoise’s teeth had gone into the poison. That’s why this poison is mysterious and deadly.

You should be able to make poison anytime, anywhere. It is a work that perfectly abides by the motto of the poison manufacturer, that the poison made must be lethal and must be kept in a veil until it kills the target.

“Po… can’t give up… “

Sally Merina, she walked over to the ingredients table and scraped together all the ingredients for the antidote related to the symptoms of that poison and returned to her seat. Then she tried everything she could on her own level, but to no avail.

Diririririring!ㅡ

“Now, that’s it! Everyone stop what you’re doing and file the report!”

Sally Merina, her eyes went dark.
